"Larry Ruhl courageously tells the story of the sexual victimization done to him at the hands of his father and emotional and covert abuse by his mother. His memoir offers compassion and hope to all male survivors working on recovery. Larry knows he must share his deepest secrets to recover, and I applaud him for daring to put these truths into the light of day to inspire all of us."

"Larry Ruhl’s new memoir is an important act of truth-telling. One in six men has experienced child sex abuse, and Ruhl’s sensitive narrative is now a resource for those men as they do the hard work toward healing.”
